Starting the server in Fedora

Nope... if you want it to start at boot, you really need to have it as part
of your initd, TTBOMK. I don't do it that way, so all I have to go by is the
FAQ. I personally start the server manually whenever I want to connect to it
from remote.

[<Yigal>] I know it's a FAQ but I didn't find the answer in
www.realvnc.com which is the software I installed in the XP side...
That's web site (gotomyvnc) is new to me. Thanks.

 I'll save you some searching. The FAQ you want is
>here: http://faq.gotomyvnc.com/fom-serve/cache/57.html
[<Yigal>] 
I followed the instructions in
http://faq.gotomyvnc.com/fom-serve/cache/67.html but it didnt help. When
I run vncserver things start to run ok. Don't I have just to run
vncserver in a .cshrc file or something like that?
